Ingredients
Scale
Cookies:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups Rice Krispies cereal
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Combine: Gently fold in the Rice Krispies and chocolate chips.
- Bake: Drop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, until lightly golden.
- Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For chewier cookies, slightly underbake and allow to finish setting on the baking sheet.
- You can also add chopped nuts or use white chocolate chips for variation.
